Abstract

A method for evaluating cell quality includes obtaining cell quality information and determining, based on the cell quality information, a first number, X, of beams whose qualities are above a threshold, T, for a first cell and a second number, Y, of beams whose qualities are above the threshold, T, for a second cell. The method includes complementing a third number, M, of fictive beams to offset a difference between the first number, X, of beams and the second number, Y, of beams, and measuring a first average beam quality, Q, for the first cell and a second average beam quality, Q, for the second cell. The method may include a certain number fictive beams with assigned beam quality when calculating cell qualities for cells which are included in comparison.
